The Barça board of directors will make a decision in the first two weeks of January on what stadium project will be subject to a referendum with the club's members.

Board spokesman Toni Freixa explained on the club's official website it had two choices: "The construction of a new stadium on the land on Diagonal, property which belongs to the University of Barcelona, or a profound remodelling project that would constitute a new stadium keeping the current structure of the Camp Nou.

"Both would have a capacity of 105,000 spectators, the stadium would be covered, there will be a construction of a new Palau with a capacity of 12,000 spectators, an adjacent court with a capacity of 2,000 spectators, 6,000 new parking spots and access to the Ciutat Esportiva of the Miniestadi.

"We've made advances, we have all the information and we're in a position to make a decision."

Despite the sizeable financial outlay that would be involved, Freixa insisted any project would not harm the club.

"It needs to be viable from a technical perspective, urbanist and economic," he added.

"We would never submit a project that would endanger the sustainability of the club."

If complete, the new stadium could be third in terms of capacity to only two other stadia across the globe: the Rungrado May Day stadium in North Korea, which holds 150,000, and the Salt Lake Stadium in Calcuta, which holds 120,000.
